NCIt synonyms : Truncated Glioma-Associated Oncogene Family Zinc Finger 1; Truncated GLI-Kruppel Family Member GLI1; Truncated GLI1; Truncated GLI1 Protein; TGLI1; Truncated Zinc Finger Protein GLI1; Truncated Glioma Associated Oncogene Homolog 1 Protein;
NCIt definition : Truncated glioma-associated oncogene homolog 1 protein (1065 aa, 114 kDa) is encoded
by the human GLI1 gene. This protein is involved in transcriptional regulation, tumorigenesis,
cell motility and cellular invasiveness.;
NCIt note : Truncated glioma-associated oncogene homolog 1 protein (tGLI1) is missing amino acid
residues 34 to 74 due to alternative splicing. tGLI1 undergoes nuclear translocalization
and transactivates GLI1-binding sites similar to the wild-type zinc finger protein
GLI1; however, tGLI1 is gain-of-function variant that can activate several genes that
are not regulated by wild-type GLI1. (Oncotarget. 2015; 6:22653-22665 and Cancer Res.
